BRISTOL, Tenn. -- Kyle Busch won the NASCAR Truck Series race Wednesday night at Bristol Motor Speedway for his record 14th overall victory on the high-banked, 0.533-mile oval. The Sprint Cup driver took fresh tires with 16 laps to go, passed Ryan Blaney for the lead with six laps left and held off Timothy Peters in a race to the finish that ended with Peters crashing on the frontstretch. "He wrecked a pretty good race truck and I hate it for him," Busch said. "But, we had a pretty good race truck. We got behind with a penalty on pit road, but we just stuck in there and persevered to get back to the front." Busch broke a tie with Darrell Waltrip for the NASCAR track victory record. Busch has four victories at the track in the Truck Series, five in Sprint Cup and five in the Nationwide Series. "Some might say youre not breaking anything until you win 12 Cup races," Busch said. "Ive been fortunate in my career to have a lot of great vehicles here to race. Ive won here with a lot of different vehicles, a lot of different crew chiefs. Id like to be able to win 13 Cup races and break that record, too." The victory was his third in eight Truck starts this season and pushed his career total to 33. Busch also has three victories this year in Sprint Cup and eight in Nationwide. He has 119 victories in NASCARs top three series -- 27 in Cup, and a record 59 in Nationwide. Busch started 10th in the No. 51 Toyota and worked his way up to second early in the race. He was given a penalty for speeding on pit road on lap 85 and fell back to 26th. He was 12th, nearly a lap down with 20 laps to go before the caution came out for a wreck by Jeff Agnew. Busch charged to second on the second-to-last restart, and then passed Blaney on the inside for the lead on Lap 194. Peters raced to the inside of Busch with two laps to go and the two remained side-by-side to the finish. Busch inched ahead at the line as Peters No. 17 Toyota spun out of control and slammed the inside wall. "I was going for it. It was either wreckers or checkers," Peters said. "Kyle was holding his line a little low, but thats what hes supposed to do. I got into him a little at the end and the truck took off. I hate it that we tore up our truck, but I was going for it." Blaney finished third, but was fuming over an incident with Peters laps earlier. "He ran me up to the fence at the end and I wasnt too happy about that," Blaney said. Peters was unapologetic about the contact. "Thats short-track racing," he said. "He might as well get over it." Johnny Sauter finished fourth in a Toyota, and Chase Elliott was fifth in a Chevrolet. Elliott, the 17-year-old son of former NASCAR champion Bill Elliott, won the pole with a lap of 15.328 seconds (125.183 mph). He led the first 63 laps of the race before Peters passed him for the top spot. After the race, the crews of points leader Matt Crafton and Joey Coulter scuffled in the pits over an on-track skirmish. Crafton finished 10th, one position ahead of Crafton. Ben Kennedy, the great-grandson of NASCAR founder Bill France Sr., was 20th, one lap down, in his series debut. Earlier, Mike Stefanik won the NASCAR Whelen Modified Series race. The seven-time series champion passed Todd Szegedy with 10 laps remaining for his series-record 74th career win. Sprint Cup Series driver Ryan Newman finished fifth.CC Sabathia Jersey .

Let me explain: he can go in that meeting room for two hours in the morning, walk out here at 11:30 and take it to the field. You cant teach that. Guys can handle it or they cant.So, hes handling a lot of information, handling the team, practiced well today. We need to help Trevor all we can but I know Trevors ready to do his part.Siemian isnt the only new face in Denvers starting lineup.Peyton Manning and five other offensive starters from the Broncos 24-10 win over Carolina in Super Bowl 50 are no longer on the roster, a radical makeover for a champion. Neither is Brock Osweiler, who bolted to the Texans in free agency.The only players returning to their same spots on offense are center Matt Paradis, running back C.J. Anderson and receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas. Another, Michael Schofield, lost his right tackle job to free agent Donald Stephenson but will start at right guard because of injuries to Ty Sambrailo (elbow) and Darrion Weems (concussion).Two years after revamping his defense in the rubble of Seattles Super Bowl demolition of Denver, GM John Elway rebuilt his offense in the wake of his teams triumph.While Elway spent months searching for Mannings successor this offseason, only to find him already on the roster, the Broncos boss jettisoned both tight ends and three O-linemen who started in the Super Bowl.Vernon Davis and Owen Daniels were replaced by Virgil Green and free agent John Phillips.Ryan Harris, Lou Vasquez and Evan Mathis are no longer protecting the passer, replaced by Russell Okung, Max Garcia and Stephenson.Elway also released Ronnie Hillman, the teams leading rusher last season but a non-factor in the Super Bowl, where Anderson rumbled for 90 yards and Denvers only offensive touchdown following Von Millers second sack-strip of Cam Newton.Elway said he believes the offense can carry more of its weight this year after relying so heavily on Denvers destructive defense to bring home the franchises third Lombardi Trophy.Im excited about offense, Elway said. Weree better in the offensive line, especially as we get healthier.dddddddddddd. Running back, I think were deeper at running back. Our receivers are still good. I think we have a chance to be better offensively with a good balanced attack and have Trevor come in, play well and do the things that he can do.Last year, the Broncos put their 39-year-old QB in the pistol or shotgun, which limited their ground game and play-action possibilities. Now, theyre back to the run-heavy approach that Kubiak has employed most of his career, one that features roll-outs, bootlegs, sprint-outs and plenty of hand-offs.Weve got a lot more things that we can do with the running game now, Elway said. Weve got a fullback that can really play in (Andy) Janovich and who does a great job. It gives us a lot of different options.Elway suggested this new offense will take some pressure off Miller & Co.It gives us a better chance to be better on defense, Elway said, because if we can stay on the field and pick up some third downs and keep those guys rested on the defensive side, weve got a chance to be better there, too.The biggest change is Siemian under center. The former Northwestern QB beat out Mark Sanchez with steadiness and spunk.Im not trying to be Peyton, Siemian said. I could probably get in a lot of trouble trying to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer.Elway said Siemian has the right mental makeup to succeed Manning: He handles the huddle very well. The guys like him, they respect him and believe in him.Siemian served as the Broncos No. 2 QB for the seven weeks Osweiler started while Manning was sidelined in 2015.Trevor has a chance to be successful because even though hes essentially a rookie as far as play time, hes got the feel and knows what its all about, Elway said. That experience he had last year is going to help him tremendously this year.Game notesThomas (offense), DeMarcus Ware (defense) and CB Kayvon Webster (special teams) were elected captains. ...
